RUMOR: Cryptic Studios North Worked on Jurassic World Game

Sometimes the time is ripe for rumors and want. Jurassic World is coming to the big screen soon. People have been clamouring for ages to get their hands on a decent dinosaur survival game. Things are brewing in the north.

Clearly this calls for the perfect intersection of wants, needs and rumors.

Let me guess, I’m going to be Indiana Jones?

According to a post on Reddit, Cryptic Studios had been working on a game based on Jurassic World. With the supposed closure of Cryptic Studios North in Seattle, we have been treated to this gem.

Not quite sure what you would have done in the game other than it being described as being similar to ‘H1Z1.’ Early Access on Steam would have come out soon but that’s all the info I know.
The game looked quite good and was nearly finished as well. It looks like the game was entirely unknown to anybody outside the company as I can’t even find any info on it at all.

Now while it is true that Cryptic Studios North handed off Champions Online back to the home base as covered by MassivelyOP here, and while it is true that there is a brand new dino game called ARK: Survival Evolved; all of this remains a rumour.

Perhaps we’ll find out what might have been, or perhaps it’ll be disproven. We shall wait and see.
